Also one of the most memorable and profitable action film series of all time, the film has a regular Cop assume the role of a superhero as he takes down the bad guys as he simply wants to meet with his wife whom he is having marital problems with. The original posters for the film did not have Willis in the artwork which was to prevent non Willis fans from seeing the film. It was only later added but proved to be a box office success. A remark by one of the police officers referring to McClain as a bartender is a true description of Bruce Willis who was indeed a bartender before he entered the movies. The Nakatomi Towers is actually the unfinished building headquarters of Fox studios it billed itself for the film. The lead role was offered to Arnold Schwarzenegger, Sylvester Stallone, Burt Reynolds and Richard Gere before Bruce finally accepted the part.
